The Rule of St. Benedict - Chapter 53. The Reception Of Guests

(1) All guest who present themselves are to be welcomed as Christ, for he himself will say, "I was a stranger and you welcomed me," (Matt 25:35).
(2) Proper honor must be shown to, "all, especially to those who share our faith," (Gal 6:10) and to pilgrims.

(3) Once a guest has been announced, the superior and the brothers are to meet him with all the courtesy of love.
(4) First of all, they are to pray together and thus be united in peace,
(5) but prayer must always precede the kiss of peace because of the delusions of the devil.

(6) All humility should be shown in addressing a guest on arrival or departure.
(7) By a bow of the head or by a complete prostration of the body, Christ is to be adored because he is indeed welcomed in them.
(8) After the guest have been received, they should be invited to pray; then the superior or an appointed brother will sit with them.
(9) The divine law is read to the guest for his instruction, and after that every kindness is shown to him.
(10) The superior may break his fast for the sake of a guest, unless it is a day of special fast which cannot be broken.
(11) The brothers, however, observe the usual fast.
(12) The abbot shall pour water on the hands of the guests,
(13) and the abbot with the entire community shall wash their feet.
(14) After the washing they will recite this verse, "God we have received your mercy in the midst of your temple," (Ps 47[48]:10).

(15) Great care and concern are to be shown in receiving poor people and pilgrims, because in them more particularly Christ is received; our very awe of the rich guarantees them special respect.
